The New York Youth Symphony made history Sunday night as the first youth orchestra to ever win a Grammy, in the category of "Best Orchestral Performance."

CBS2's Jessica Moore caught up with two of the symphony's stars to talk about their historic achievement.

"There was an email sent out about being submitted to the Grammys, and I remember reading that and being like, um, OK, that's cool?" said 22-year-old Kennedy Plains, who plays the bassoon.
